Mumbai’s popular bookstore, Butterfly Books is hosting a BooksByWeight sale this November and our inner bookworm is wriggling with joy.
At this sale, you’ll find more than 30,000 pre-owned books from regular fiction and children’s premium to coffee table and non-fiction premium books, all sold by the kilo. Now, is this not every Bibliophile’s dream come true?
Love the smell, the rustic feel and the margin notes that pre-owned books come with? Fancy yourself some leather bound classics and rare Russian lit novels but at prices that don’t pinch the pocket? Are you willing to brave the crowds, long queues and sift through thousands of bundles to carry back home the good, good loot {you know it’ll be worth it}? Affirmative?
The BooksByWeight sale is definitely for you.
Because you can buy books {and not just any random ones} at ridiculously low prices and by the kilo, like you buy vegetables!
At the BooksByWeight sale, you can purchase regular fiction and Mills & Boon for INR 100/kg, children’s premium books {including picture books, reference, children’s fiction, ladybird & more} for INR 300/kg and coffee table & non-fiction premium {art, business, photography, travel, to name of you} also for INR 300/kg. They’re also offering classical English literature, Russian literature and even the faux leather bound fiction beauties all for INR 300/kg.
If you’ve been wanting to expand your book collection since forever, there’s no better time than now. Set a reminder, ask a friend to join you {the company can help with the patience maybe} and head to Lok Kala Manch.
We all know books matter and when they come at heavily discounted prices such as at this sale, you know you’ve got to make the most of it. See you there. Follow the event page here for more updates.
